Well, I'm 8 yrs in and I finally have something to show for it. It has a few flaws currently but I'm pretty happy with it as it continues to improve. Its on the upswing from neglect due to a new addition to the family.
I'm running 2x400watt metal halides, 432 watts of t5, 2 vortech mp40s, 1 mp10, a reef octopus ps-3000int skimmer(its a beast), DA Reefkeeper elite, 3 pc4, DA mlc(moon light controller) with 4 led pods, 2 blue and 2 white, reefkeeper2, calcium reactor, 2 fans for cooling, a 1/4 hp chiller for emergencies, and 2x 300watt heaters.
Livestock consists of 1 sailfin tang, 2 anthias, 2 true perc clowns,3 blue chromis,1 bangaii cardinal, 1 janns pipefish( he's about 8.5 yrs old), 1 pair of mated mandarins, cleaner shrimp, peppermint shrimp, hermits n snails, tigertail cucumber, 1 crocea clam,1 squamosa clam and 1 maxima as well, Cheatomorpha in sump, and 1 lonely little mangrove(more coming soon). I have decided to start transitioning to smaller inhabitants as far as fish go as well.
Salinity is 1.025
Temp 79 Deg
0 measurable nitrates
Ph 8.1
Alk 11
Mag 1250
Cal 430
All parameters are in order.
Lots n lots of flow. Vortechs are about 3/4 of full speed on reefcrest mode.
Please excuse my photography skills. This was all taken with my phone. I don't own a camera.
Any and all questions, concerns, and comments are welcome. You never know what can be learned from anothers discerning eye.
Thanks for looking.
